Britney Spears - The Woman in Me (new song 2025)

First verse:
My precious body, who has worked for that man
for the past fucking thirteen years
Trying to be so good and pretty.
So perfect when he works me so hard
When I do everything I’m told, giving these people way too much control
Ignorant beep who only has a role with me if I work with him
I don’t even drink alcohol
I should drink alcohol
Considering what they put my heart through
I don’t owe them to go see a man I don’t know and share him my problems
And that’s the main reason I’ve never said it openly

Pre-chorus :
I don’t owe these people anything
Especially me
I want changes
I want changes going forward
I deserve changes

Chorus :
And maybe I’m wrong
And maybe that’s why I didn’t want to say any of this to anybody
I thought people would make fun of me
Laugh at me and say
She’s lying
she’s got everything
She’s Britney Spears
She’s lying
she’s got everything
She’s fucking Britney Spears.”

Second verse:
You have to go, I was advised for my image
You need to go to rehab and get it over with
I’ve lied and told the whole world
I’m OK and I’m happy.
You know, fake it till you make it. Well I’m telling you the truth now
How come I was always threatened by my beep
If I don’t do what they tell me to enslave me
They’re gonna punish me.
I thought just maybe if I said it enough times
I might become happy because I’ve been in denial
And that’s the main reason I’ve never said it openly

Pre-chorus :
I don’t owe these people anything
Especially me
I want changes
I want changes going forward
I deserve changes

Chorus :
And maybe I’m wrong
And maybe that’s why I didn’t want to say any of this to anybody
I thought people would make fun of me
Laugh at me and say
She’s lying
she’s got everything
She’s Britney Spears
She’s lying
she’s got everything
She’s fucking Britney Spears.”

Third verse :
I was told I have to sit down if I want it to end
I honestly didn’t know that
Sorry for my ignorance
But I’ve done more than enough
It’s embarrassing and demoralizing what I’ve been through
Keeping my beep in the loop made me feel like I was dead
Like I didn’t matter
Like nothing had been done to me
Like you thought I was lying or something
I just want my life back without being evaluated
And that’s the main reason I’ve never said it openly

Pre-chorus :
I don’t owe these people anything
Especially me
I want changes
I want changes going forward
I deserve changes

Chorus :
And maybe I’m wrong
And maybe that’s why I didn’t want to say any of this to anybody
I thought people would make fun of me
Laugh at me and say
She’s lying
she’s got everything
She’s Britney Spears
She’s lying
she’s got everything
She’s fucking Britney Spears.”

(This line ought to be read not sing)
To be honest with you, the Paris Hilton story on what they did to her at that school, I didn’t believe any of it. I’m sorry. I’m an outsider, and I’ll just be honest. I didn’t believe it.
(End of inserted read passage)

I’ve been in denial.
I’ve been in shock.
I am traumatized.
But now I’m telling you the truth, OK?
I’m not happy.
I can’t sleep.
I’m so angry it’s insane.
And I’m depressed.
I cry every day.

Chorus :
And maybe I’m wrong
And maybe that’s why I didn’t want to say any of this to anybody
I thought that people would make fun of me
Laugh at me and say
She’s lying
She’s got everything
She’s Britney Spears
She’s lying
She’s got everything
She’s fucking Britney Spears.”

I want changes
I deserve changes
I want changes
I deserve changes
I deserve changes
